Re: Called my respirologist

Excellent news! Don't take no for an answer! The Xhale

people are super nice, albeit a bit busy but they will

smooth the way. Keep us posted! Yippie for Canadians!

ps I have my 6 month anniversary tomorrow! I am on the

lowest amount of pred since Nov 2003! I am having some

side effects from tapering (sigh) but otherwise me and

pulmo are thrilled!

- great news that you are stepping down from the pred. I had

real problems with fatigue coming off it. Also, now I have to put

up with minor arthritis symptoms that were masked by all that pred.

But all of it better than living with pred. The fatigue and other

side effects related to coming down off pred do go away eventually.

Take care all,

Addy
